Carabinieri from the town of
Spinea near Venice on Monday arrested a 40-year-old man with
Bangladeshi origins for domestic violence.
The man stands accused of engaging in violence and harassment
of his wife since 2007. She was reportedly humiliated, beaten,
and received death threats from him repeatedly.
The most serious charge is that of rape as part of a "system"
of violence against the woman within her home.
The couple's daughter was also reportedly beaten repeatedly,
including with objects.
The carabinieri intervened after an investigation that began
in 2017 after the woman reported the violence on reaching the
age of adulthood and becoming awareness of the seriousness of
what she had been subjected to.
The relationship had continued for years, with the woman
hoping that it would improve.
The carabinieri found that the man insulted and threatened
the woman and their daughter on a daily basis, often beating
them even to the point of leaving her face swollen and bruised
several times.
